We spent part of our Labor Day watching the U.S. Open (tennis) and having a dinner of hot dogs and corn on the cob. John is quite the tennis fan and plays 3 to 4 times per week. I no longer play since my knee refuses to cooperate. Our favorite hot dogs are Nathan’s All-Beef Hot Dogs. I make the dogs by simply boiling them. I top them with diced onions, yellow mustard, and sweet relish.

For the corn I shuck it and put the ears in a dish with a little water and butter. Then I put the covered dish in the microwave for 2-3 minutes per ear depending on the size of the ear. Our local corn was on sale for 8/$1. What a delicious bargain!

Happy Labor Day!
